St. Joseph Hospital Auxiliary
Since 1950, the St. Joseph Hospital Auxiliary has helped promote and sustain the mission of St. Joseph Hospital through a variety of community events. The Auxiliary actively supports the hospital by organizing and leading fundraising events. Yearly, the Auxiliary donates the proceeds from these events to the hospital to help purchase new technology or help begin new service areas.
The Auxiliary manages Helen’s – the Hospital gift shop. In addition, the Auxiliary organizes an October Fashion Show and the annual Lights of Remembrance program.
The Auxiliary is always looking for new community members to join their group. The Auxiliary provides three different membership levels: active members, sustaining members and benefactors.
- Active members pay annual dues of $10, and may wish to participate in active service programs and functions of the Auxiliary.
- Sustaining members pay annual dues of $25 to support the aims of the Auxiliary, and may wish to engage in active participation in Auxiliary functions or programs.
- Benefactors pay one lifetime fee of $100. Benefactors will be recognized with a plaque placed in a prominent location within the hospital. They may enjoy the same membership privileges as an active or sustaining member.
